The Indian SCM market experienced healthy growth in 2018, and the Web and the e-mail security segments registered steady growth. Large enterprises prefer stand-alone SCM solutions due to the need for high performance and for forensics and privacy purposes, and this drives the uptake of SCM solutions. However, a growing number of Indian enterprises are starting to use more integrated solutions when compared to stand-alone SCM products. This shift in preference from on-premise solutions to cloud-based security solutions will become a critical issue in the near future.
With the increased digitalization of banking services in India, incidents of cyber attacks and phishing fraud are on the rise, and this pushed the sector to record the highest spending on SCM solutions in 2018. In addition, the government aims to digitalize all its offices and services by 2020; in this regard, it will have to develop secure infrastructure and platforms for citizens to be able to access services online. This will stimulate the rising demand for e-mail security solutions in the sector.
Research Scope
The study period is from 2019 to 2023, and the base year is 2018. SCM solutions are the key area of focus and they cover e-mail security and Web security. Vertical segmentation is as follows: government, banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI), service provider, manufacturing, education, and other sectors (pharmaceuticals, retail, logistics, oil and gas, energy, mining, agriculture, IT/ITES, and BPO). Horizontal segmentation covers large businesses and small and medium businesses.
Important companies in the Indian SCM market include Symantec, Forcepoint, Cisco (IronPort), Trend Micro, SonicWall, Barracuda, F-Secure, McAfee, and Kaspersky.
Research Highlights
The study highlights important market growth drivers and restraints. Key drivers include the constantly evolving risks that drive the need for e-mail and Web security solutions, the stringent security and privacy requirements that push organizations to invest in on-premise security solutions, and the need for productivity management that drives enterprises to invest in these solutions.
